Common questions

What is HS code 0205?

0205 is the HS 2022 heading for Meat; of horses, asses, mules or hinnies, fresh, chilled or frozen. It is in chapter 02 (Meat and edible meat offal), section I, and is not split further: the 6-digit code is 0205.00.

Can I write 0205 on a commercial invoice?

Customs usually need at least the 6-digit subheading (for example 0205.00), and the import declaration uses the destination country’s full code of 8 to 10 digits. Use the subheading that matches your product, and confirm the national digits with the buyer, the customs broker or the official tariff.
